No attachment limit for admins

I would like to be able to have the file size/extension limits not apply to admins.  Is this easy to do?  There's times I need to upload a couple of meg zip or something, but I don't want to give the world access to do that.  I've been changing the limit, uploading the file, then changing it back.

Post.php, find:
if (!empty($modSettings['attachmentSizeLimit']) && $_FILES['attachment']['size'][$n] > $modSettings['attachmentSizeLimit'] * 1024)

Replace:
if (!$user_info['is_admin'] && !empty($modSettings['attachmentSizeLimit']) && $_FILES['attachment']['size'][$n] > $modSettings['attachmentSizeLimit'] * 1024)

I still can't upload anything over 192.

Same here, comes back with

Your file is too large. The maximum attachment size allowed is 192 KB.

My max attachment setting is 100KB so dunno where it gets 192 KB from.

Maybe it's your per-post limit?

Not sure what you mean by per post limit?

I've just found this topic, so apologies for the late question.

I can find Post.template.php but can't find Post.php  Which sub-directory would it be in?

TIA

It's in your Sources directory.

Post.php is in the folder /Sources

i thought that if we should edit it, it should not just be for the over-all attachment limit, but edit more of the code below that, to allow more permissions to the admin.

would this be alright?

// Is the file too big?
if (!empty($modSettings['attachmentSizeLimit']) && $_FILES['attachment']['size'][$n] > $modSettings['attachmentSizeLimit'] * 1024)
fatal_lang_error('smf122', false, array($modSettings['attachmentSizeLimit']));

// Have we reached the maximum number of files we are allowed?
$quantity++;
if (!$user_info['is_admin'] && !empty($modSettings['attachmentNumPerPostLimit']) && $quantity > $modSettings['attachmentNumPerPostLimit'])
fatal_lang_error('attachments_limit_per_post', false, array($modSettings['attachmentNumPerPostLimit']));

// Check the total upload size for this post...
$total_size += $_FILES['attachment']['size'][$n];
if (!$user_info['is_admin'] && !empty($modSettings['attachmentPostLimit']) && $total_size > $modSettings['attachmentPostLimit'] * 1024)
fatal_lang_error('smf122', false, array($modSettings['attachmentPostLimit']));

if (!$user_info['is_admin'] && !empty($modSettings['attachmentCheckExtensions']))
{
if (!in_array(strtolower(substr(strrchr($_FILES['attachment']['name'][$n], '.'), 1)), explode(',', strtolower($modSettings['attachmentExtensions']))))
fatal_error($_FILES['attachment']['name'][$n] . '.<br />' . $txt['smf123'] . ' ' . $modSettings['attachmentExtensions'] . '.', false);
}

if (!$user_info['is_admin'] && !empty($modSettings['attachmentDirSizeLimit']))
{
// Make sure the directory isn't full.
$dirSize = 0;
$dir = @opendir($modSettings['attachmentUploadDir']) or fatal_lang_error('smf115b');
while ($file = readdir($dir))
{
if (substr($file, 0, -1) == '.')
continue;

$dirSize += filesize($modSettings['attachmentUploadDir'] . '/' . $file);
}
closedir($dir);

// Too big!  Maybe you could zip it or something...
if ($_FILES['attachment']['size'][$n] + $dirSize > $modSettings['attachmentDirSizeLimit'] * 1024)
fatal_lang_error('smf126');
}

// Find the filename, strip the dir.
$destName = basename($_FILES['attachment']['name'][$n]);

// Check if the file already exists.... (for those who do not encrypt their filenames...)
if (!$user_info['is_admin'] && !empty($modSettings['attachmentEncryptFilenames']))

I was thinking of doing the exact same thing .. I don't see why it wouldn't work .. guess I'm about to find out  ;)

though it seems you didn't add the string !$user_info['is_admin'] && to the first part of the code // Is the file too big?
if (!empty($modSettings['attachmentSizeLimit']) && $_FILES['attachment']['size'][$n] > $modSettings['attachmentSizeLimit'] * 1024)
fatal_lang_error('smf122', false, array($modSettings['attachmentSizeLimit']));

So what's changed here over the past 2+ years that might stop this working?

NB I'm aware of the following:

Maybe it's your per-post limit?

But still can't attach a 600K image with per post limit of 2000K and max attachment size of 200K 'disabled' as suggested above for admins (so that line at least remains unchanged since 2004!) and suspect there may now be some additional limiting factor?
